To provide an autonomous driving vehicle capable of ensuring passengers' comfortable boarding/alighting while preventing interference with obstacles even when an obstacle exists at a position where the vehicle is desired to be stopped.SOLUTION: An autonomous vehicle includes an external sensor that acquires information on external conditions of the vehicle, a vehicle height adjuster that adjusts the vehicle height, and a control unit that controls the vehicle. Upon stopping the vehicle at a predetermined stop position, the control unit controls the vehicle height adjuster so that the vehicle height is adjusted according to the conditions for boarding/alighting the vehicle at the predetermined stop position. If an obstacle is detected at the predetermined stop position by an external sensor, the control unit controls the vehicle height adjuster based on the height of the obstacle so that the obstacle does not interfere with the vehicle within the range that meets the conditions for boarding/alighting the vehicle at the predetermined stop position.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3
【課題】車両を停車させたい位置に障害物が存在する場合であっても障害物との干渉を防ぎつつ乗員に安楽な乗降を提供することができる自動運転車両を提供する。【解決手段】本自動運転車両は、車両の外部状況に関する情報を取得する外部センサと、車高を調整する車高調整装置と、車両を制御する制御装置とを備える。制御装置は、車両を所定停車位置に停車させる場合、所定停車位置での乗降条件に応じた車高になるように車高調整装置を制御する。そして、外部センサにより所定停車位置に障害物が検出された場合、制御装置は、所定停車位置での乗降条件を満たす範囲において障害物が車両と干渉しないように、障害物の高さに基づいて車高調整装置を制御する。【選択図】図3
